FOXBOROUGH -- Patriots wide receiver Aaron Dobson missed his first practice of the season Wednesday with a foot injury, according to the team's participation report.

Right tackle Marcus Cannon, who peeked out from the training room during the open locker room period and quickly closed the door when he realized reporters were in the room -- though not before colleague Michael Whitmer spotted a walking boot on his lower right leg -- also missed practice, as did tight end Michael Hoomanawanui (knee).

In addition to Dobson, cornerback Marquice Cole (shin) and linebacker/special teamer Chris White (back) were also new to the Patriots report.
